Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Neisseria gonorrhoeae seriously compromises the management and control of gonorrhea.• In vitro clinical N. to extended-spectrum cephalosporins (ESCs), last-line treatment for gonorrhea, have been reported from many, particularly well-resourced, settings globally.• The World Health Organization (WHO) Global Gonococcal Surveillance Programme (GASP) is key monitoring AMR trends, identifying emerging AMR, informing regular refinements guidelines public health...
Emilie Alirol and colleagues discuss the development of new treatments for gonorrhea.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a major concern worldwide. It has been recently feared that the bla TEM-1 gene is, via TEM-135, evolving into an extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL), which could degrade all cephalosporins including ceftriaxone. The aims of present study were to characterize TEM genes, types plasmids, degradation ampicillin by TEM-135 compared TEM-1, and perform molecular epidemiological typing β-lactamase-producing N. strains internationally....
With the quick spread of pandemic disease, many individuals have lost their lives across different parts world. So, need for a novel approach or model to overcome problem becomes necessity. In this paper, mechanism is proposed called DBCMS (Drone Based Covid-19 Medical Service) safety medical employees who are prone infection. The can effectively improve treatment process patients. Drones nowadays commonly used in field emergency situations. paper uses drone service reduce risk infection...
Objective The aim of the present study was to retrospectively analyse data reported on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Neisseria gonorrhoeae six South-East Asia Region countries from 2009 2012 following revitalisation WHO global Gonococcal Antimicrobial Surveillance Program (GASP). Methods AMR were generated for 7 antibiotics 4675 isolates 18 focal point laboratories using calibrated dichotomous sensitivity (CDS) or Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) methods minimal...

The adequacy of the World Health Organization's syndromic approach for diagnosis and management sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), especially at primary health centers (PHCs) other levels, is still debatable in different settings India requires validation.A cross-sectional study was carried out women attending peripheral government clinics Delhi order to (1) enumerate their self-reported reproductive tract infection (RTI)/sexually (STI) symptoms; (2) assess clinical status; (3) determine...
Despite the progressive increase of antimicrobial resistance Neisseria gonorrhoeae worldwide, there are limited reports alternative remedies from plants.The aim current study was to screen 3 plants, Ocimum sanctum, Drynaria quercifolia, and Annona squamosa, for activity against gonorrhoeae.By disc diffusion method, extracts these plants were screened gonorrhoeae; their calculated as percentage inhibition compared with penicillin ciprofloxacin.The all caused clinical isolates World Health...
To monitor the trend of antimicrobial susceptibility Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates from 2002 to 2006 in New Delhi, India under Gonococcal Antimicrobial Susceptibility Programme and document emergence any new resistance.Antimicrobial 382 N. clinical cases males females penicillin, tetracycline, ciprofloxacin, spectinomycin ceftriaxone was determined by disc diffusion technique, using WHO reference strains as controls interpretative criteria. MICs were Etests.A significant increasing...
SUMMARY The study was carried out in symptomatic and asymptomatic women attending peripheral health centres to determine the laboratory prevalence of sexually transmitted infection (STI), reproductive tract (RTI) HIV. A total 4090 four groups were subjected general speculum examination screened for aetiological agents RTI/STI by standard techniques. main complaint vaginal discharge, singly (11·2%) or along with other symptoms (49·0%). Prevalence RTI/STI/HIV 36·8%. Agents RTIs harboured 24·3%...
Abstract Background Knowledge on antimicrobial drug resistance and genetic characteristics of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates circulating in India, Pakistan, Bhutan is sorely lacking. In this paper, we describe the prevalence molecular N. from 2007–2011. Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility β-lactamase production were tested for 65 N . India (n=40), Pakistan (n=18) (n=7) using Etest methodology (eight antimicrobials) nitrocefin solution, respectively. Resistance determinants, i.e. penA , mtrR...
Background Recent WHO guidelines recommend dual therapy with ceftriaxone or cefixime plus azithromycin for gonorrhea. Azithromycin in combination gentamicin spectinomycin has been recommended treatment failure cases. Due to emergence of multi-drug resistant (MDR) and extensively-drug (XDR) Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains, it is important look efficacy these combinations also others that might be used future. Therefore, we aimed evaluate vitro synergy 21 including current alternative regimens...
